Happy birthday Building Llops!

Today, I wanted to tell you the real reason for my creating Building Llops. I started my first blog today two summer ago, with the intention of writing about my experience in Paris. I spent the entire summer there, so my blog was my way of keeping my family and friends updated but, instead of sending them the typical and boring email, I could do it in a unique way. I decided that I could write about it in a different way, allowing for my creativity to grow and for my writing skills to improve. I had seen other people do it, but I had never been able take that one small step. But one day, without thinking about it, I did it.
I started out creating a simple template, with nothing but my words and photos. A few weeks later, I had created my own template, added the colors I wanted and changed the font and style of the blog overall.
But, my biggest dilemma was coming up with a name. The blog was a creative way of telling my story. I didn’t want for it to be a diary, but rather a guide for everyone to enjoy. A guide of what, you may ask? Of life. That is how the name was born. Building Llops was my way of growing and building a bigger and better person. It was a little project to teach myself to think outside the box and explore new things. It was my way of expressing the little and beautiful things in life. Building Llops was meant to inspire anyone who read it or wrote in it.
In these two years, my creativity has grown, allowing for my imagination to grow wild like it hasn't in many years. I have learned HTML, I have learned about photography, art, marketing…I have learned about sooo many new topics that I love and, the best part of all, I have been able to make people like and love what I write. I hope to keep doing the same thing for many many years to come improving day by day with all of your help and support.
